I've used Fondarific quite a bit and love it's flavor and texture. Please don't use water or it will stick.

I roll my fondnat out on clear plastic (the type you use as a tablecloth available by the yard) and fairly thick. Befre you roll, cover the surface of the clear plastic with a generous wipe of shortening and cover your rolling pin as well with shortening. You should have no problem lifting the plastic with the ondant on i to the cake, then peel back the plastic. I love using the clear plastic because I can see what the top of the cake will look like before it gets applied to the cake. Does that make sense?

I have got to quit reading though these posts when I'm at work (AKA "my real job")I have caught myself laughing out loud more than once . PLEASE! Earwax pried from a dead dog's ear - you're killing me.All kidding aside, I am learning so much from everyone. I just can't thank you enough!
